Student Learning Objectives (SLO) Resources for English Language Arts 1 What are SLOs and why are they important? Primary Measures of the EES • Hawaii Growth Model • Student Learning Objectives Student Teacher Growth andPractice Learning • Classroom Observations • Core Professionalism • Tripod Student Survey • Working Portfolio (non-classroom only) Educator Effectiveness Data Improved Student Outcomes 4 SLO Process 10. Determine next steps 1. Identify the learning goal 2. Develop or select assessment(s) 9. Rating of SLO 8. Analyze assessment results 3. Establish targets based on data 7. Revise targets if necessary 4. Plan instruction 6. Implement the SLO 5. Receive initial approval Hawaii Department of Education 5 Student Learning Objective Cycle Step 6: Monitor and Evaluate the Results Step 6: Monitor and Evaluate the Results Step 6: Monitor and Evaluate the Results Data Team Cycles Step 6: Monitor and Evaluate the Results Student Learning Objectives (SLO) • Are teacher designed • content-driven goals • set at the beginning of a course • that measure student learning through an interval of time (i.e. one school year or one semester). 7 Student Learning Objectives: • support the achievement and growth of all students that aligns to daily instruction and progress monitoring with specific prioritized goals Assessments, Scoring & Criteria Learning Goal SLO Components Expected Targets Instructional Strategies What is a learning goal and where can I find resources for it? A Learning Goal has 5 Sub-Components Standards Big Idea Learning Goal Rationale Learning Goal Interval of Instruction Big Idea • A declarative statement that describes a concept or concepts that transcend grade levels in a content area and represents the most important learning of the course. CCSS Portrait of a College and Career Ready Student • They demonstrate independence • They comprehend as well as critique • They build strong content knowledge • They value evidence • They respond to the varying demands of audience, task, purpose and discipline • They use technology and digital media strategically and capably • They come to understand other perspectives and cultures http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/introduction/students-who-are-college-andcareer-ready-in-reading-writing-speaking-listening-language “Big Idea” Resources for (Content Area) • The Common Core State Standards Page 7 provide a portrait of a college and career ready student: Big Idea Example: Using the Portrait of a College and Career Ready Student College and career ready students are able to cite specific evidence when supporting their own points in writing and speaking. (CCSS – Introduction to ELA/Literacy) Big Idea CCSS ANCHOR STANDARDS • Reading- 10 anchor standards • Writing- 10 anchor standards • Speaking and Listening- 6 anchor standards • Language- 6 anchor standards Big Idea Example: Using the Anchor Standards A college and career ready student is able to assess how point of view or purpose shapes the content and style of a text. (Anchor Standard R.6) Big Idea Example: SBAC As a part of this evidence-centered design of assessments, Smarter Balanced established four “claims” regarding what students should know and be able to do to demonstrate readiness for college and career in the domain of ELA and literacy. http://www.smarterbalanced.org/wordpress/wpcontent/uploads/2012/05/TaskItemSpecifications/EnglishLanguageArtsLiteracy/EL AGeneralItemandTaskSpecifications.pdf Claim #1: Students can read closely and analytically to comprehend a range of increasingly complex literary and informational texts. Claim #2: Students can produce effective and wellgrounded writing for a range of purposes and audiences. Claim #3: Students can employ effective speaking and listening skills for a range of purposes and audiences. Claim #4: Students can engage in research and inquiry to investigate topics, and to analyze, integrate, and present information. Big Idea Example: Using the SBAC Claims College and career ready students can engage in research/inquiry to investigate topics and to analyze, integrate and present information. (SBAC Claim #4) The Learning Goal • A statement that thoroughly describes what students will know, understand or be able to do by the end of the interval of instruction The Learning Goal http://standardstoolkit.k12.hi.us Example: Grade 5 • Big Idea: College and career ready students can engage in research and inquiry to investigate topics, and to analyze, integrate and present information. • Learning Goal: Students will be able to write short research papers integrating and citing specific evidence from several sources. • Standard: W.7.5: Conduct short research projects that use several sources to build knowledge through investigation of different aspects of a topic. Depth of Knowledge Reminders • SLOs should be at a minimum of a DoK level 2; • If there are DoK level 3 targets for the course or grade level, those should be selected.

Summarizing and Note Taking • • • Provide teacher-prepared notes using a variety of formats, and graphic organizers. Teach students a variety of summarizing strategies. Engage students in reciprocal teaching. Reinforcing Effort and Providing Recognition • • Teach students the relationship between effort and achievement. Provide recognition aligned to performance and behaviors. Homework and Practice • • • Establish and communicate homework policy. Design assignments that support academic learning. Provide timely feedback. Nonlinguistic representations • Provide students with a variety of activities such as creating graphic organizers, making physical models, generating mental pictures, drawing pictures and pictographs, engaging in kinesthetic activity. Instructional Strategies Recommendations for Classroom Practices (Marzano, et al., 2001) Cooperative learning • • Use a variety of small groupings (e.g. think-pair share, turn and talk, numbered heads together, jigsaw). Combine cooperative learning with other classroom structures. Setting objectives and providing feedback • • Set and communicate objectives that are specific and flexible. Include feedback elements of both positive interdependence and individual accountability. Generating and testing hypotheses • Engage students in a variety of structured tasks such as problem solving, experimental inquiry, and investigation. Ask students to explain their hypotheses and their conclusions. Cues, Questions and Advanced Organizers • • • • • • Use explicit cues. Ask inferential and analytical questions. Use stories, pictures, and other introductory materials that set the stage for learning. Have students skim materials before the lesson. Use graphic organizers.
